d-records in geometrically distributed random variables
We study d–records in sequences generated by independent geometric random variables and derive explicit and asymptotic formulæ for expectation and variance. Informally speaking, a d–record occurs, when one computes the d–largest values, and the variable maintaining it changes its value while...
